Blackburn hitman Rhodes has scored against just about everyone since making an £8million move from Huddersfield 13 months ago.

Vaughan has hit nine goals in his first nine games this season and the two strikers arrived at Ewood Park as the division’s top two scorers. But even though Rhodes headed over when unmarked, they barely had a sight of goal between them.

You’ve got two quality strikers out there, and you wouldn’t bet on it being a 0-0

Blackburn boss Gary Bowyer said: “We dominated for long spells but we just haven’t been cute enough.”

Huddersfield manager Mark Robins said: “You’ve got two quality strikers out there, and you wouldn’t bet on it being a 0-0.”
